"Once in my drunken youth, come to think of it I wasn't so young, I filled out a tax return by entering my desired refund at the bottom and working backward."

And there is no doubt that the govt determine how much it wants when creating these tax forms- and they are also drunk.
In terms of "fairness" it seems almost genius.
